This guide has been created by the team at WIRED HOTEL ASAKUSA, a hotel that opened in April 2017 that is located right in the heart of Asakusa. Whether Japanese or Foreign, our main goal here is to provide our guests with an authentic experience centered around Asakusa and its rich, abundant culture. We have chosen a few shops that our staff and guests alike have come across, places that also happen to be run by young creators who are reinventing Asakusa through their own lens.
This is the Asakusa of both outsiders and insiders, young and old, rich and poor. Guests differing in every way but are nonetheless drawn into the world of Asakusa. We present not only Sensoji, but also the local, the comfortable, the calming, the challenging. We hope that you enjoy your journey with us.
